Seemed like she was never gonna loose any teeth and then…

This started as stuff Evie has said that I've remembered to write down. If only I had started sooner. I've missed things like "I almost agot", "Mmmmm, goot", "Farshfellows are yummy, yummy, yummy", "All the people", "Hubba, Hubba, Hubba", "Baa Baa Boo", "Cowabunga, Dude!", "A Lion Guard Bliund Bag", "I do it", "Oh, yaaaah", "I'm a Haidband Haid", "Dey Cazzy". As of 2017, we've added stuff Andy says, too. I sometimes forget to post it before I've forgotten what they said or did so this is by no means all the funny things that have happened. And you also don't get to see the looks on their faces, the tone of voice they used or the hand gestures that go along with it. I wish I'd had something like this for my kids!

Andy has always liked to play with the ribbons and ties and things on Mama and my shirts. I recently wore a white robe that he’s never seen and he asked me if he could “tie the strings together on your Ninja suit”.
Evie: “Nana, guess what book I got at the school library today?”
Nana: “Another Boxcar Kids?”
Evie: “Nope. ‘Unikitty’s Guide to Happiness’….Even tho I don’t need one, heh!”
Sitting on the couch with my legs crossed. Andy goes over to one side and says “Jack be mimble, Jack be quick, Jack jump over your leg!” And proceeds to step over and laugh like a loon. So funny.
Today they are playing Amazon Prime. Evie explained that she packs up the order and sends it to Andy. Andy gets it at his apartment, opens the package and is either happy or sad. If he’s sad, then he takes it to the UPS place and sends it back. And then she gives him something better.
The influence we have, eh?
Evie – “Nana, are Salt Guns really made of salt?”




The three of us went on a walk today. The wind picked up.
Evie – “Hold on to your brothers and your hats!!”
Andy watches a show called Peg + Cat which is all about math. Whenever she needs to solve a math problem she shouts “We’ve got a big problem!” This morning, Andy was eating his breakfast of Nutella on toast. I came out and commented on the mess that was his hands to which he replied
“I’ve got a big chocolate problem!”
